Data Science is an interdisciplinary field that utilises computing technology to derive obvious and non-obvious relationships in data by developing the appropriate scientific algorithms and implementation of these methods to extract useful knowledge or insights from the data. The focus of the Data Science Research Group at Kent is to apply the techniques such as signal processing, machine learning, security and statistics in an impactful manner to benefit the wider public. Our research is cross-disciplinary involving schools such as Business, Computing, Engineering, Pharmacy, Psychology, Sociology and Sports Science.
